For two-component heated spray, the minimum recoat interval is unlimited.
All surfaces to be coated shall be clean, dry and free from contaminants. Before coating, all surfaces shall be assessed and prepared in accordance with ISO 8504:2000. When used as a primer, the substrate shall be abrasive blast cleaned to Sa2½ with a surface roughness of 40–75 µm. Before derusting, oil, grease, welding spatter shall be completely removed from the surface and welds and sharp edges shall be ground. If the coating film surface is mechanically damaged and local rusting occurs, local abrasive blast cleaning to Sa2½ or power tool cleaning to St3 is required before local repair. When coating over other old coatings, the surface shall be thoroughly cleaned of chalking, loose old paint, grease and other contaminants by appropriate methods. When coating over inorganic zinc silicate primer or sprayed metal surfaces, an approved tie coat or intermediate coat shall be used. For concrete protection, the concrete shall meet curing requirements, and the water content and surface condition shall comply with relevant regulations.
1. During application, ensure ventilation and exhaust, keep away from ignition sources, and wear protective equipment such as masks and gloves. Maintain adequate ventilation during curing. 2. For single-line airless spray, first stir the base component uniformly, then add the curing agent according to the mixing ratio and mix uniformly. Addition of thinner is generally not recommended; if the application equipment cannot meet the spray pressure and atomization requirements, adjust the amount of thinner according to application needs and temperature changes, stir thoroughly and allow to induct. 3. When using two-component airless spray equipment, measure and calibrate the volumes of Component A and Component B on the spray equipment, and operate at the specified heating temperature; the recommended heating temperature is 50–60 °C. 4. Over-thinning will reduce sag resistance and slow curing. 5. When thinner is used, excessive coating thickness will seriously affect drying and curing, recoatability and handling time. To obtain better coating performance, when the film thickness exceeds 200 µm, multiple coats shall be applied to improve coating density. Avoid applying excessive thickness in a single coat at edges, corners, welds and similar areas; once these areas are coated too thick, extend the recoat time of subsequent coats to ensure solvent evaporation from the coating, otherwise cracking may occur during service. 6. After long-term exposure, if chalking occurs on the coating, clean with high-pressure water or sand the surface before applying subsequent coatings. 7. Roller application cannot achieve high film thickness and a good continuous film in a single coat; multiple coats are required. 8. During application and curing, the substrate temperature must be above 10 °C and at least 3 °C above the dew point, and the relative humidity must not exceed 85%. 9. Cutting structures coated with this product generates fumes and dust; appropriate protection shall be provided. 10. When work is paused, do not leave coating in the paint line, spray gun or spray equipment. Thoroughly flush all equipment with thinner. If the pause is too long, it is recommended to mix a fresh batch of paint for application. 11. All equipment shall be cleaned with thinner immediately after use. Periodic flushing of spray equipment during daily work is good practice. Cleaning frequency depends on spray volume, temperature, spray time, including interruption time and other factors. 12. Residual paint and empty cans shall be disposed of in accordance with relevant regional regulations.

1. For the coating and its recommended thinners, see the safety sheets and the safety data of the relevant materials. This is a solvent-borne coating; avoid inhaling spray mist and solvent vapours, and avoid exposing skin and eyes and contact with uncured paint as far as possible. 2. All work related to the application and use of this product must comply with the relevant national health, safety and environmental standards and regulations. 3. If welding or flame cutting is required on metal coated with this product, dust and fumes will be generated; use appropriate personal protective equipment and adequate local ventilation. 4. If in doubt about the suitability of this product, consult the company.
